White House Launches Arcade.Gov, a Minigame Site Where You Catch Immigrants, Build a Tetris Border Wall, and ‘Fill Your Kids’ Trump Accounts’ With Bitcoin

The White House has launched Arcade.Gov, a new section on the official U.S. government website featuring web-based mini-games built as parodies of classic video game titles. The arcade contains at least five games that reimagine well-known titles with themes centered on immigration enforcement and border security.

The collection includes Flappy Bill, a Flappy Bird parody where players guide a bald eagle through Capitol-themed architecture; Rio Run, a Snake-style game in which players collect and deport migrants crossing the Rio Grande; Build the Wall, a Tetris clone where players stack bricks to construct a border barrier against “the coming horde”; and Trump Savings Tycoon, a Duck Hunt-inspired clicking game. The site’s promotional messaging on social media—“CAN’T STOP WINNING. Build the wall. Deport. Fill a Trump Account. LIVE - PLAY NOW”—frames the games as part of the administration’s political messaging strategy.

The releases have drawn criticism from gaming media outlets, which characterized the games as creatively uninspired knock-offs and described their political themes as racist and xenophobic. The White House has indicated plans to add additional games to the arcade in the future.
